More About Steering
Steering has been around for a long time. Long ago, people used ropes to steer boats. Now, we have wheels and sticks to steer better. Cars and boats are much safer now.
Steering is part of our lives every day. We use it when we ride bikes, drive cars, or sail boats. It helps us get to school and play. Without steering, we would not know where to go!
In the future, steering might get even cooler. We might have cars that drive themselves! That means no hands on the wheel. How fun would that be?
